Oil prices sank to 14-month lows, because&nbsp;there&#8217;s so much oil in the global market and not enough demand to absorb it. OPEC and Russia hope to change that. They meet on Thursday to discuss a production cut, in hopes of boosting oil prices. A significant cut could have an immediate impact on gas prices, but to what extent will depend on&nbsp;how the oil&nbsp;market responds,&#8221; stated Jenkins.<\/p>\n<h3>Oil and Gasoline Dynamics<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Domestic crude oil production&nbsp;<\/strong>remains at a record-high 11.7 million barrels per day;&nbsp;21 percent more than last year<\/li>\n<li><strong>Domestic oil supply&nbsp;<\/strong>increased for the 10th consecutive week\n<ul>\n<li>Supply levels are the highest since this time last year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gasoline production<\/strong>&nbsp;remains strong<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gasoline supplies&nbsp;<\/strong>are nearly 5 percent stronger than a year ago<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gasoline demand<\/strong>&nbsp;is steady<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exports of crude and refined fuels&nbsp;<\/strong>reached a new all-time high last week of 8.7 million barrels per day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n[320center]<\/p>\n<h3>Gas Price Tools<\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-989%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230376&amp;Action=Follow+Link\" ><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">GasPrices.AAA.com<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Daily national, state, and metro gas price averages<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-989%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230375&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">AAA Mobile app<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Free app that&nbsp;compares&nbsp;gas prices near you<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-989%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230374&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gas Cost Calculator<\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Determine how much gasoline will cost on your next road trip.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Current and Past Price Averages<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Regular Unleaded Gasoline<\/strong><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\" width=\"480\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.vocuspr.com\/Publish\/522440\/vcsPRAsset_522440_105553_279a6033-181d-4f41-a971-72bcb183d553_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"54\"><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Sunday<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Saturday<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Week Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Month Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>One Year Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong>2018 High<\/strong><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong>Record High<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>National<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.467<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.477<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.561<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.774<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.480<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$2.97<\/strong>&nbsp;<br \/>\n(5\/26\/2018)<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$4.11&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp; (7\/17\/2008)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tennessee<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.241<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.255<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.342<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.560<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.285<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$2.73<\/strong>&nbsp;<br \/>\n(5\/27\/2018)<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$4.12<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n(9\/15\/2008)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"8\" bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-989%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230373&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">Click here<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;to view current gasoline price averages<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Gas Price Survey Methodology<\/h3>\n<p>AAA updates fuel price averages daily at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-989%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230372&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.GasPrices.AAA.com<\/a>.
